Pelvic Girdle Pain

PGP Uncovered - SIJ, pubic symphysis & coccyx course


Description
This course will assist the clinician in improving their clinical competency in assessing and treating Pelvic Girdle Pain including assessment and treatment of the Sacro-iliac joint, Pubic Symphysis and Coccyx pain

The below resources are available for course participants for 6 months after completion of the course.
Please note the bottom section is the same lectures with revised graphics the content is much the same except for the DRAM lecture series and the images.

Videos:
1. Surface anatomy
a Bony: Identify, all relevant bony landmarks
b. Muscular: Learn how to differentiate each muscle within muscle groups
Abdominals, anterior hip, External rotators (ER), gluteals, adductors and hamstrings.
c. Neural: Follow the pathway of the ilioinginal, ilihypogastric and genitofemoral nerves

2.Two x Full Pelvic Girdle Pain Assessment:
a. Observe a Pelvic Girdle Pain Assessment from start to finish
b. Watch a full Pelvic Girdle Pain Assessment for pregnancy.

3. Diastasis of the Rectus Abdominus Muscle (DRAM) assessment:
A DRAM assessment is demonstrated.
We look at DRAM in both standing and lying and look at muscle position at rest, and on abdominal muscle
activation. Recording length width and depth

4. Sacro-iliac Joint Assessment (SIJ)
a. SIJ movement tests, pain provocation testing
b. Palpation of relevant structures around joint
c. Physiological and accessory movements of the SIJ supine, sidelying and prone

5. Coccyx Assessment and Treatment Template
a. Postural, occupational and ADL advice
b. Palpation assessment of coccyx and structures attaching to it in sitting and prone
d. Treatment options for the coccyx

6. Pubic Symphysis Assessment and Treatment Template
Observe and assessment for the pubic symphysis

7. Hip assessment video

8. Special test
a. ASLRT, Gillet test, SLS + Squat test

9. Taping of the SIJ

Then there are theory lectures on:

10. Surface Anatomy
11. DRAM
12. Sacro-Iliac Joint
13. Pubic Symphysis
14. Coccyx
15. Hip

Wow what a lot of resources for you - we hope you ENJOY
